New European Architecture 08-09

An atypical cross-section of recent European architecture that celebrates a distinct approach is collected in the 20 projects presented here. The selection is intended to show the possibility of achieving exceptional results in more normal and everyday circumstances. Residential houses, public buildings, commercial office and recreational facilities have been drawn from all over Europe each introduced with a short commentary and accompanied by photographs, plans and elevations. Edited by Hans Ibelings and Kirsten Hannema and containing essays and interviews, this survey is an invaluable survey of the current state of European architecture.
